Saw some pics of a good looking UI to bring multiple views on the screen.

The new movable front wings just seem like the more flexible wings we saw for the last decade. I was a fan of them deforming naturally like that before they made the teams quit doing that.

Can’t wait to see these new cars next year.
Can we just get the size of the cars reduced please? I don't want to see even larger SUVs driving around Monaco next year

I did not realize how big the cars were until I stood next to one in Vegas

The new cars are smaller

About 4” narrower and 8” shorter. Nothing drastic. I think the hope is that the dirty air won’t be as big of a problem and they will actually be able to be near each other.

It's a small change in size, but it's a step in the right direction. I've always been told it's the chassis that limits how small they can go due to crash structures. I'm not knowledgeable enough about engineering to know if that's true or just some bullshite that gets repeated.

Apple TV really isn’t that bad. I’ll be signed up and watching for Bahrain testing.

If I could get f1 tv with just an Apple TV sub, then it’s a tremendous win (may not be the case?)

Some sweet shows too

Jack Doohan has been testing for Super Formula the last few days. It has not been going well for him.

Probably trying to do something that worked on the simulator.

That corner, Degner 1, I always found to be the scariest corner at Suzuka in the simulator. Always made me nervous. But the F1 guys rarely screw it up IRL.

I found these crazy shots of F1 cars exiting Degner 1:

That’s an insane amount of torque on that chassis.


This might be the start of Oscar’s villain arc.

Today’s cars have to carry all their fuel for the race (since no refueling) and a battery pack system.

F1 the movie is streaming on Apple TV now. Watched it for the first time last night and it was a pretty good movie.

I watched it too. You have to overlook some things if you have any F1 knowledge but it’s a good movie.

They nailed K-mag being a terror.
